bt50 Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I dont really care what they do to sell tickets or memberships, just as long as they dont gloat about having 2000004234 members when only 8000 are at a game like the AFL clubs do. Best comparison would be revenue from memberships. But even then, the sale of 3-4 game memberships detracts from gate takings, so perhaps its membership and gate revenue combined that's the real indicator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony999 Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Agreed. For the record, the count was 7,022 before the new packages became available. Any further comparisons with previous seasons are meaningless because it is no longer "apples with apples." The club would have the breakdown of all the various different grades of membership, but we don't.Well that's just shit. So if we have say 9000 members that includes the 4 game membership, what happens when they have exhausted the 4 game membership? Like you said, the club will know but we will never know our true membership count. Then they will introduce a two-game membership... then one-game membership.... they should not be called "membership". Should be "4 game package" or something like that that has no bearing on membership count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluka Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) I do wonder, and it would be nice if it were the case, if the 4 game members have the opportunity to upgrade to a full membership at the conclusion of their 4 games.Give them a taste, and then offer them to stay on.

A three race membership for $50ish, then if you like you can upgrade to the yearly - minus the $50.Works really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club would have the breakdown of all the various different grades of membership, but we don't.But they've done this every year. Didn't they even resort to a "2 game membership" last year?This is the membership thread, so we talk about membership, but like others have said its not that relevant. Most use seems to be for some sort of "pissing contest" between clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raw10 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) I am surprised that the club didn't promote 'personalized' membership cards on the website or anywhere else for that matter .. if anything it is an added bonus and unique for our fans of this magnificent club ! Also more the reason people should sign up cause who knows it will ever be repeated again next year.. I don't know about everyone else but I regarded my membership cards as a memorabilia.

If you can show that you have paid (which obviously you have) the responsibility is clearly with the club to deliver your membership card to you, SportsSub or no SportsSub. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
